    Lija, I'll pick up the melafix omw home from work. How many parts melafix to water should be used for soaking?

    Thank you so much for the advice. She's been eating crickets and small hornworms. Will these be okay when she starts eating again, or should I pick up wax worms?

    Follow same treatment instructions on bottle for fish to make soaking solution (Melafix comes in various concentrations). Easiest way is to prepare 1 gal. (keep bottle in dark) and use as required for a week. When done with treatment discard the left over solution and you are done .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    do as Carlos said for melafix, as for food, use whatever soft foods you can get at first, small hornworms, wax worms, silkworms, whatever she eats. if she is all right, she should be crazy hungry when you offer food in a few days, don't over do it, try small amounts a day and see how it'll go.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    By chance, does anyone know at what size these guys can be kept over water instead of substrate?
